Fisher on Friday alluded to every possibility ahead of the Aztecs from winning the national championship to not making the tournament. But he has no less confidence in his group than he ever has.

“We’re good enough to say we wanted to win the Mountain West Conference going into this year,” Fisher said. “If we don’t win it, we’ll be disappointed.”

It won’t be easy.

They are the only Mountain West contender that has all three of the other contenders on the road in the second half. They're at Colorado State on Wednesday, UNLV three nights later and New Mexico on Feb. 27. A game at Boise State, who SDSU just edged with a three-pointer in the final seconds, is the season finale.

Fisher honestly believes the Aztecs are better this year than last. He also thinks New Mexico and Colorado State are better than they were and that there are times UNLV is dominant.

How much does Fisher believe in his team, that they don’t have to end up being disappointments? He said it doesn’t matter where they’re seeded in the NCAA Tournament. Of course, he wants to go in as hot as possible, seeded as high as possible.

“But," he said, "I think we’re good enough, regardless of where we’re seeded, no matter who we’re stacked up against, to not be fearful.”
